We went to Glenwood Springs and took Simon on his first gondola ride to the top. Hopefully he will be used to these in the future along with quads, and tow ropes.
From there we had beautiful views of Mt. Sopris. There was also a killer Alpine Slide but no pictures.
Here are Rachel & Simon at the top.
We also went to the Maroon Bells. Here is what they look like on a clear day.
Here is what they looked like on the day we went. Simon didn't seem to care either way but he did get caught in his first snowstorm.
We also drove to Aspen for lunch. What I thought of as Aspen is actually made up of four ski areas including Buttermilk where they host the X Games. Check out the size of the jumps that are still there this late in the year.
The next day we went to the town of Red Stone to see Hay's Creek Falls and the old coke ovens.
We had lunch in the little town and than we left for Denver driving over Independance Pass. The boy was sleeping so we didn't stop at the summit. We've found it is best to let a sleeping baby lie.
